Naledi Pandor classified Israel as an ‘apartheid state’ and set a precedent in prosecuting it in the International Court of Justice after its aggression against Gaza. “One of my fellow ministers sent me a report saying that Israel described us as the legal arm of the Hamas movement.

They were also saying that I was receiving orders from Iran and I was a supporter of ISIS. This is some fake news and insults that are being promoted. They even reached my family and reached my husband and children", she said.
